Peckhamrye Posted July 19, 2011 Share Posted July 19, 2011 Agree with Sue - even Fullers would have been better and Greene King have an awful record over the last 20 years of destroying breweries...and the beer ain't that great...

picapica Posted July 20, 2011 Share Posted July 20, 2011 Not sure The Crooked Well qualifies as a pub... Make the most of it while its there. Your starter for 10: how many incarnations has this site gone through since the demise of the Kerfield?

Otta Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 It used to be owned by a chap who built up a little collection of pubs, but he joined forces with capital a while ago.
